We live a long way from the official rain gauge site, but I think it must have been well over an inch, as our parched ground is still wet this afternoon. I'm hoping our weather patterns are in for a change. It's about time. Days on end of the 100+ temps and no rain has been horrible. All my birdies and outside critters are doing the happy dance today!

Debra,I adore your fabric for new Fall pillows! What a nice addition they will make to your sofa! Mary Carol Garrity stated in one of her books, "If you love something, get it...you'll always find a place for it". In time, you'll find "the perfect" spot for your cabinet...which is magnificient! We, too, had rain and the return of double digit temperatures here on our end of the Prairie! I am so~o~ ready for Autumnal mornings, daytime and evenings!!! Have a wonderful week, dear friend!Fondly,Pat

Oh Debra,I'm with you, I would have snatched that cabinet up too!! You got a fabulous deal and it is a gorgeous piece!!I love the fabric you picked out for your pillows. I've had Fall on my mind over the last few days too, I'm so ready for cooler temps!!Hope you have a lovely Sunday afternoon!!Sincerely,Melinda

Oh, how I love your chippy wall cabinet! I think you bought a long lost relative to my little medicine cabinet I hung in my kitchen. Yours is a little more "high end" with the added base and crown, but it sports the exact same latch. Can't wait to see where you hang it!

Debra, how could you not bring that cabinet home with you? I do that often. Buy it because I love it. Sooner or later we find a place. I think the price was great. Can't wait to see where it ends up. The fabric is perfect and I don't think it needs any foo-fooing. It will add great color.Hugs,Jann

Hi Debra: Love that medicine chest. You can really use it anywhere. Great spice chest for kitchen? If all else fails, bathroom!! I really think the new pillows are beautiful and will dress up the sofa. So soft for autumn colors, Just perfection..Happy Sunday..Judy

I love your cabinet! I would have bought it too, and my husband would have said where are you going to put that!! I love your fabric for your pillows. I make the simple ones too.I don't want to pull my hair out either.

Love your chippy wood treasure. I've one to be repainted and distressed too, but waiting for a No humidity day. I found one a while back and have used it in my crafty area for lots of little goodies.Your "Fall" fabric choices are great. I love fall and hope to redo after the grandkids leave this week.Have a great week.

I love your perfectly chippy cabinet! I get similar responses from all of the "men in my life" whenever I bring something new/old home from one of my "adventures"! The pillow fabric and your runner are beautiful! We had rain here last night too...thank HEAVENS! xo, Kimberly

Lol - I know what you mean about bringing home something that speaks to you with no idea where it will find its place, but somehow we end up with the perfect place (eventually). It's a great piece..love it!!! Xoxo, tracie

I know exactly what you mean. I brought home a large one of those cabinets and it is sitting on the kitchen floor waiting for me to find its' spot. That is great fabric, with the beautiful and extremely warm summer we have been having, I am so looking forward to fall.

That is a beautiful fabric, Debra! I would be drawn to that, too. Unfortunately, I have to ask myself that question before I bring things home now, as our new place doesn't have the room for an unplanned "addition". : ) I'm sure you'll figure out a great place to put it!

Your fabric is gorgeous and I adore your runner. Perfect for all the way until Christmas. :o) I have the "where do I put it" dilemma with a marble top dresser I'm getting from my Father-in-law. It's driving me nuts but I'm determined to fit it in somewhere!

If I did any of that cording or fringe on pillows, I'd sure be pulling my hair out. I don't do that kind of stuff. Like you, like it simple. I love that fabric! Your house always looks like a magazine shoot. Love the chippy cabinet too. You'll find the perfect spot for it.Brenda

I love the old medicine cabinet! I am looking for one too and I know exactly where it will go ~ in master bath of our cabin. The floral fabric you chose for your pillows is muted, vintage looking and thoroughly lovely!I am glad to hear you had rain. I am praying for rain here too.

Oh.......I really love that old cabinet you found. I hope you'll share what you end up doing with it once you decide. There are so many great possiblities with it, I'm sure! I really like the floral fabric you found for some pillows too. That will be very pretty on your sofa. I've started seeing the magazines featuring Fall decorated rooms now. Hard to believe it will be here soon! Glad to hear that you're getting rain now. We've been getting sporadic showers too and it is really helping out.

I love your little medicine cabinet too!! It's perfect. You could lay it down on it's back and use it as a riser for a cloche or something?? with the mirror, you could have lots of fun with that! I'm sure whatever you do it will be great. Thanks for your visit yesterday, I will be back on Thursday, if not sooner :)

Debra, That cabinet is so you. I know you had to have it because it looks like one of a kind. There's lots of hiding places in the garage until the right time. If you know what I mean. Love the new fabric. Thanks for sharing on Simple & Sweet Fridays.
